Most SS lines aren't D.O.T approved.

I take Brett's concern as somewhat valid given that most racers using SS 
lines are either replacing them frequently, and are not used in urban street 
environments where pot holes, debris, dirt and salt in winter chaffes and "weakens" 
the lines.

These let go during a track event, on a street car.

If you can find SS D.O.T approved lines....go for it.

If you go SS on a street car, cavetat emptor

Like every component on your braking system, regualrly inspect the components.
YMMV.
